It looks pretty hidden to me. But why choose green for the court?

That's so awesome to have a tennis court basically in the same building you work in.

They're developing a new witchcraft racquet similar to that of Roger Federer's. Soon, they will have a racquet that has a frame made of steel, tension up in the 400+ range, and be able to perform special attack shots such as make the ball stick in the ground and be unreturnable. Also, it can be used as a spatula.

If it is still here, I guess we didn't miss it.
Interesting how no TW peeps answered this though.

Our color choices were narrowed down to blue or green. We went with green as the ball shows up pretty well on a green court and we knew we'd be shooting a lot of video.

I do have to walk down some stairs and across a large warehouse to get to the court, but even with that hardship, yes it is extremely convenient.

Sorry for missing this thread before.

Chris, TW
